SUMMARY:Into the River: The Story of Bristol's 1896 Railroad Bridge Disaster
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this special immersive presentation about Bristol’s forgotten railroad disaster. \nOn February 6\, 1896\, under a storm-blackened sky\, twenty railroad workers stood atop a decaying wooden railroad bridge spanning the Pequabuck River in Bristol. A powerful nor’easter had battered New England all day. Without warning\, the bridge gave way. This is the story of the tragic day when six men lost their lives. \nDoor open at 6:30pm. Refreshments will be served. Additional parking is available in the rear of the building. Admission to this program is free\, thanks to generous support from Thomaston Savings Bank and The Bristol Edition. \nReservations are encouraged for this program. To register email president@bristolhistoricalsociety.org or call the office at 860-583-6309
